fire story
I retire for the evening. This is note to advise you that the authors who are reporting the much higher death toll from the fire, and are now pursued for those reports, is a new and different news report. I imagine too, that the gas line that blew up going into Georgia is also news. Best regards. -Edbrown05 06:04, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I will do my best. Best regards. Svobo 06:15, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

 * Thank you. it's helpful information. I'm not sure how to fix a license tag, if it's not chosen initially? --Svobo 08:28, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
